Edward Lang Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jun. 13, 2016.
Lang Edward (Ed)
November 16, 1921-June4, 2016

Ed passed away peacefully at the age of 94 in the Vernon Jubilee Hospital.
Ed is survived by his loving wife Eileen, the love of his life for 69 years. Ed is also survived by his two sons, Randy (Linda) of Vernon and Ken (Carol) of Lake Country, five grandsons, Rob and Scott of Vernon, Chris of Edmonton, Steven of Vancouver, and Matt of Chase, five great-grandchildren and his four sisters, Jossie, Clara, Betty and Hilda.
Ed was born in Dysart, Saskatchewan. He moved to Trail where he married his loving wife Eileen on September 15, 1946. They moved to Nelson in 1948 where both sons were born. There he worked as a mechanic. In 1954 they settled in Kimberly where he was co-owner of Kimberley Motors. Later they relocated to Vernon in 1970 where he worked until retirement at Vernon Motors. Running an orchard and being involved in the community kept him busy. His last years were spent at Heron Grove where he was always there to help with his ever present smile.
We will miss you.
A Memorial Tea will take place on Saturday June 18, 2016 at 5:00 at the Pleasant Valley Funeral Home (4303 Pleasant Valley Road). Those friends wishing to make memorial contributions in memory of Ed may do so to Heron Grove 4900 20 Street Vernon, BC V1T 9W3.

Hello, I was very sad to hear of the passing of the wonderful man, Ed. My mother resides in Heron Grove so it was a pleasure for our family to get to know Ed and Eileen a little. I have some photos that you should have that I have taken of Ed over the last few years that you may not have. I can send them digitally to a private facebook name or e-mail.You can contact me through facebook as I am unable to attend the service. Sincerely, Eileen Podanowski
